"Any internet site you go to, whether directly or by fetching graphics from it, can log your IP address. It's the nature of the internet."

Right. I accept the fact that Ihub can log my IP address anytime I access the site, but third parties should not be able to. What I just read, is that someone who puts graphics into their thread ( the way Jenna does - just using her as the example I though of first ) will also be able to log the IP address that accesses the graphics. I think that's a good reason to not allow user's embedded html to automatically be displayed. If I want to see someone's charts or donkey pictures, I'll click on links in the posts.

And besides, the pics are bandwidth hogs, not everyone has cable.
